I am looking for information on Vernon L. Compher born around October 22 1926 and died around Feb 7 200,possibly married to a Dorothy J Compher. I have reason to believe that he may be my grandfather. I'm looking for confirmation on a relationship he may have had with my Grandmother Blanche Rosboom in 1944-46 or so. If I can prove or disoprove this information it would be very helpful.Blanche had a son who she placed for adoption and I am trying to find my father's birthfather. His mame is all I have been able to come up with. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I have worked up many of the Compher lines in Loudoun and I'm sure they connect, but there were a few too many John's and things get confusing. I have a lot more information than this. Anyone with Loudoun County connections, please contact me at MCP961@AOL.COM.
